Malawi government has finally responded to the petition which civil society organisations (CSOs) who led the April 27 civil nationwide...
In fact corruption culture is so entrenched in the psyche of Malawians that it has now been normalised. Corruption is everywhere, from the church, media, CSOs, government depts, parastatals, private sector and within political parties. It is so bad that the perpetrators are not even aware that they’re committing crime. Malawians were never criminals in the 60’s, 70’s or 80’s. Malawi was an example of a honest nation with well behaved people…..people with ethics and morality (at least most of the Malawians). I don’t know what happened but political leaders became openly unruly and brought with them seasoned criminals into… Read more »
The legal profession has no chance of integrity in the country especially when you consider a leader, himself a lawyer who swore to protect the constitution is in the forefront engaging in corrupt behaviours. If it is not the wife stealing from NAC through her charity it is the husband. Take care, the thieving couple on the loose.
Thanks #DzukaniAmalawi. In fact delegates that gathered at the then Kwacha International Conference Centre in Blantyre to work on the 1994 Constitution of Malawi are to blame for the current mess. They inserted in that supreme law of the country a proviso allowing a person with a criminal record to be a president of the country. By doing so, they opened a conduit through which a criminal character would at the very beginning introduce corruption to a wide scale and leave a precedent for others to follow. Now, Malawi is reaping from what the convict sowed during the long tenure… Read more »
What we are suffering from as a country started with TIKUFUNA WAKUBA YEMWEYO! in 1994.Look at what is has done to our beautiful country. All of us are now SWORN thieves-Led by the PRINCE OF THIEVES
The Chief Justice, if he has any integrity should immediately institute an independent enquiry into the matter and also a life style audit concurrently. The purpose of the audit and investigation is to isolate all judges that have received bribes and get them fired forthwith even if temporarily we don’t have judges, that will be fine. We can use judges from Zambia or Zimbabwe till we have a crop we can trust. Personally, I was told that one SC, has been at this -judge shopping and buying them off for a long time. Nigeria and Ghana just did this exercise… Read more »
Malawi is not wrotten opps kikikiki slip of the fingure.
Stop this FAKE generalisation.
Not all politicians or lawyers are crooked/ thieves. Kanyenda, like his colleagues in DPP, is a documented corrupt lawyer/ politicians.
Mbava zimatero pongofuna kuonetsa kuti palibe wolungama. It is a “defensive mechanism” to feel better psychologically and/or trivialise the whole scandal as NOTHING ‘aliyense amapanga’. Olo HULE lapabara limanena kuti ‘mzimayi aliyense amapanga chigololo’.
SHAME on THIEVES!!!
That’s why some of us keep saying it is not ONLY political leadership that is rotten but the whole of our country – its institutions and processes – and anyone claiming that they are transformational leader when they have no aorta of the fundamentals, are just lying. The measure of this is in the rotten calibre of leaders in government, politics, CSO leaders and private sector who are all corrupt and act with impunity. Lawyers, judges and the police are very corrupt. CSOs who keep criticising government are the most fraudulent people in our country. They are getting rich every… Read more »

Who watches the watchman? Malawi is rotten to the core
Problem is since we have judges with no morals that can be paid off, how do you expect the lawyers in private sector to be of high moral standing when the people they are supposed to fear are money hungry. Lawyers now have to spend more time soliciting cash to pay judges or pay each other off than time they spend preparing arguments.
What about the journalist? should they stand on the moral higher ground writing comments about other professionals but when one of their own is involved in a scandal they keep quiet? While it is true, that there are bad people in every profession it is wrong to say lawyers in Malawi, police, politicians, clergy. etc cannot stand on a morally higher ground. We know there are good lawyers, good politicians, good journalists, etc. What is important is to NAME AND SHAME those who are bad apples. It is wrong to paint a bad picture of all lawyers in Malawi because… Read more »
